Treasons 04:32
Stab me right into the heart So many promises unkept so far Twist my mind, corrupt your soul Trust is a mirage in this insane world We spend our entire life Using other people to get our way The truth is hard to see I thought I knew you, things are not what they seem Too many treasons For so much pain We hide our face but we can’t live without a name Guilty as sin we are Looking for a reason to justify Those acts of complete treachery Our backs to the wall there’s no alibi Will we grow up one day ? Throw away the demon that lies inside Our complete insecurity Drags us into fear that only divides us Too many treasons For so much pain We hide our face but we can’t live without a name

Who said we’re the creatures of God with a great destiny and a heart full of goodness ? Probably the same one who said life’s a chance we must embrace with gratitude and love Was he blind or dull for all I see are just true misery and atrocities We all live in competition, fighting for praised illusions but always overtaken by disillusions Where are we going ? What’s the point in living such a faithless existence ? Many people hang on to this absurdity called life, wishing things they can only obtain in their graves. In their graves. All my life I’ve been waiting For my time to come Now, shrouded in lies My fate at last has come to its end The ebbs and flows of humanity granted us with a brave new world Dreaming of goods but not of good, is that the achievement of filling up an empty existence ? Empty as mindless puppets, poor silly creatures wandering, dancing with their arms dangling All my life I’ve been waiting For my time to come Now, shrouded in lies My fate at last has come to its end

Alone in darkness Alone in empty rooms My heart once more is torn apart Lying in velvet arms Lying in bitter sweetness Is there a way to make a new start ? Drowning in sorrow Drowning in dreary seas In emptiness I’ve lost my faith The beauty of angels The beauty of purest creatures Caress by sin they all fall from grace Why the broken flowers ? Why those lies make us real ? Possessed by obsession Only pain we can feel We can feel ...

A deep voice in your head Tells you to act this way Immoral delight Pleasure and flesh prevail When sins rise over virtue The call of lust is irresistible You cannot win this Resign yourself, I'll set you free Obey and follow your Inherent vice Anytime you hear it calling Inherent vice Can't fight it back you're sinking Inherent vice The path to freedom but still Inherent vice Consumes your soul and makes you mine One touch, one kiss The skin so soft you're electric Ardours of vice grow Like a savage beast, bloodthirsty Demons spinning your head The burning flames of passion Brings you to a new world Where pain and pleasure become one Obey and follow your Inherent vice Anytime you hear it calling Inherent vice Can't fight it back you're sinking Inherent vice The path to freedom but still Inherent vice Consumes your soul and makes you mine

Seasons follow one by one and nothing changes Everything is idle as we claim to lead the way Life’s a bland thing, same nonsense we go through each day Only few pleasures remain to escape this fate Oh I’m waiting for…. …..Extinction Sun’s too bright, my eyes can’t see, I’ll stay in the dark Shelter me ! I won’t go back to this crawling nightmare In the silence I can sleep forever again Everything must have an end so please, let me sleep tight Oh I’m waiting for…. …..Extinction Seasons follow one by one and nothing changes Everything is idle as we claim to lead the way Shelter me ! I won’t go back to this crawling nightmare In the silence I can sleep forever again Oh I’m waiting for…. …..Extinction

about

The Living Paradox Semur En Auxois, France

We are a synthpop band formed in Besançon in 2016.
Our sound is a mix of several 80’s post punk and new wave bands with more modern influences as well.
We try to make a sound balanced between the energy of rock and the ethereal or acid sounds of synth oriented wave.
Have a taste ;)
